So it’s been on my mind to share some things about a favorite topic– gardening… just a little here & there. Some things you may already know, and some, maybe not. I didn’t grow up having to garden (and I’m fairly certain that most people in my generation didn’t either.) So if we want […]
Finding Balance ~ He Nailed It
Thoughts of balance come up often in my mind. In numerous conversations with Christian friends, the subject often leads us to this idea of balance – that elusive place… or is it?
